Have you ever heard of mobile philanthropy? We at Social Exchange Solutions certainly hadn't until the folks at Mobile Matters reached out to us for help! Mobile Matters is a non-profit organization that aims to help other non-profits use technology to further their mission. Earlier this year, we built a Drupal webform to better facilitate Mobile Matters' grant application process for those affected by Hurricane Sandy.

We are proud of our diverse portfolio and we encourage more non-profit organizations to reach out to us! Contact us to learn about our non-profit discount or Drupal services.
